Playwriting typing and typesetting help

The plywood project is a project to help type and typeset plays. It comprises a small structured-text format, an Emacs mode, a translation program and a LaTeX style.

The goals are:

1) Reduce the work of the playwright to that of writing a play. Even learning special key strokes is discouraged -- the system should DWIM.

2) Make the plays pretty, yet conforming to standard formatting rules.

Currently, we have implemented the Standard American format, as described by Samuel French.

plywood contains the LaTeX style, and the plywood script to transform plays in the plywood format to LaTeX code and an emacs mode to edit the files in.
